So, where has this year gone and no new recent hikes. I am looking at Autumn hikes soon. 😁

A great hike and great company. A little blustery on the tops but wow, stunning scenery

Sturdy footwear and suitable waterproof clothing are strongly recommended. Everyone is welcome, but walkers should consider their own fitness and mobility before joining.)🙂

Had a great walk with some of our former camino pilgrims. Now relaxing having a pub lunch in Robin Hoods Bay. Looking forward to the next hike..

Well, the hiking boots are back on!

After a few days of "gentle" hiking in Northumberland (and by gentle, I mean it nearly finished me off), I have decided to tempt fate once again. The legs complained, the lungs negotiated, and various joints submitted formal letters of protest, but the sense of achievement was wonderful.

So today, Maureen and I have set off along part of the Cleveland Way towards Whitby. After a very important hydration stop — purely for health and safety reasons, of course, we'll pick up the Cinder Track and make our way back.

I may not be breaking any speed records, but I'm moving forward, one step at a time. At my age, that counts as both exercise and a minor miracle!

A humble apology to all those who were expecting news of a hike in May.

May arrived, May flourished, May packed its bags and quietly disappeared into the distance... and somehow the promised hike failed to materialise. I can only assume it got lost, took a wrong turn, or stopped for a pint and never returned.

The good news is that I have not abandoned the idea, nor have I traded my walking boots for slippers just yet. I shall endeavour to get a short hike organised as soon as possible, ideally before Christmas decorations appear in the shops again.

Thank you for your patience. In the meantime, feel free to keep your walking boots handy, your sandwiches fresh, and your prayers ready in case I decide that "short hike" means a gentle stroll that accidentally turns into a pilgrimage.

Watch this space!
